Apple Cherry Tart
Crumb Topping:
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/3 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup pecans, chopped |
Tart:
1/2 pkg. (15 oz) refrigerated pie crust (1 crust)
1- 21 oz can cherry pie filling, divided
2 Large Granny Smith apples |
Preheat oven to 400° F. Let pie crust stand at room
temp. for 15 min. For topping, in bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon,
and butter. Blend with a pastry blender. Add pecans to mixture.
Mix well, set aside. For tart, roll pie crust into a
13" circle using a lightly floured roller.
Peel, core, and slice apples. Cut slices crosswise in
half, layer apples evenly over crust to within 1 inch of edge of crust.
Spread 1/2 cup of pie filling over apples. Sprinkle topping over apples.
Fold outer edge of pastry over filling to form rim (pastry
will cover outer edge of filling only).
Bake 30-35 min or until crust is golden brown. Cool slightly.
Also great served with vanilla ice cream with remaining pie filling.
